Trump's a liar Bernie Sanders is dishonest

“I don’t know anything about what you’re
even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists.”

So
says Donald Trump, a fan of Mussolini. He knows nothing about white
supremacists or that such a thing exists. It could be possible as he’s a bit like
the British royalty. He’s never worked, had a lot of money given to him from
the beginning, and has no real connection to the living breathing reality of working
class life.

The
reason Prince Phillip, that husband of the aging British Queen, herself from a
family of NAZI sympathizers, is such a moron is because they are sheltered from
society, they don’t work, they don’t interact with genuine human beings, they
are lifeless.

My
personal view, and I’m sure that most American’s agree with me, is that Trump
is lying.American’s are used to that
from politicians, it’s normal.Politicians in the Parties of the ruling class can’t tell the truth, no
one would vote at all and more and more Americans are taking that road or
declaring themselves as independent. Most candidates that run as independents
are not really independent either; they are either Democrats or Republicans and
more often than not representatives of one wing or another of US capitalism.

Trump’s
views are close to the views of white supremacists and Nazi’s. He wants to bar
anyone from entering the US who belongs to a certain religion. It’s one step
from that to expelling people from the country who belong to that religion is
it not? Perhaps he might consider building camps for them or putting them in
outdoor concentration camps like Gaza.

Trump
is clearly a racist, and although he doesn’t use the term, a white nationalist.
Above all of course is that he’s a capitalist, a parasitic one at that. I demand that Jews condemn and separate
themselves from the Zionists which is a form of Jewish extremism, so white
workers should condemn and separate ourselves from Trump and other white
nationalists who hide behind the cloak of conservatism and Christian
ideology.Trump is a disaster for the US
working class.

And
while we are on the subject of dishonesty, there’s Bernie Sanders.Hilary Clinton has won South Carolina handily
taking about 74% of the vote.The black
population stood solidly behind her.This could be the turning point for the Bern although we have to be
cautious in these very volatile times. But I return to Bernie’s pledge that he
will urge his supporters to support Hilary Clinton if he is not nominated which
myself and others have felt is most likely. This will disappoint many of his
young enthusiastic supporters.

Bernie
has been dishonest with those who have supported him. He knew the role that the
super delegates play in ensuring the dominance of the Democratic Party machine
but has never made an issue of it. He talks of politics being rigged,
government being rigged butso is the
party nomination process. He knew of all this before he ran as a Democrat.
Attacking the rigged system within the party whose nomination he seeks would
not have hurt him with his supporters. Warning his supporters, many of them new
to politics, would have been the honest thing to do. Look at what Trump says
about the Republican Party.And if
Sanders was kicked out of the Democratic Party for exposing the undemocratic
procedure within it or making an issue of it and urging his supporters to fight
within the party to democratize it, this would have increased his popularity
among new fresh layers and also laid further groundwork for a left alternative
to the Democrats.

Instead
he has been a successful recruiter for the Democratic Party. If he genuinely
believes that the Democratic Party can be reformed or taken out of the hands of
Wall Street that controls it, he should have campaigned on that basis. He
should have pointed out that it would be very unlikely he would be picked as
the nominee even if he won a popular vote, as the Superdelegates are there to
protect the party power. Instead, in one of the debates he commented, with a
quick friendly nod to Hilary Clinton that their party or this party, I can’t remember
which, is one thousand times better than the other meaning the Republicans.

This
love affair with Bernie that liberals and some left/socialist groupings like
Socialist Alternative that has opportunistically abandoned a long standing
opposition to supporting Democratic Party candidates in order to win a few
recruits from the Sanders campaign, is most likely coming to an end. (Surely Socialist Alternative had an in depth internal debate on such a historic change in orientation)

But Bernie is no fool either. He has been
around a long time as a Democrat dressed up as an independent. He is a seasoned
politician like Hilary Clinton. He has been dishonest with his supporters, he knew what he was doing all along.
